Honoring the innovations of Taylor designs dating back to 1975, the Legacy 810e offers the sound, look and feel of the original Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar with updates to select features that enhance the overall performance and aesthetic. Crafted with Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top, this model pays tribute to Bob Taylor's ingenuity and instincts for guitar-making with a big, commanding sound full of warmth, sparkle and blooming overtones powered by traditional X-bracing and Bob's flair for tonal sophistication. Subtle updates include a modern Taylor neck profile offering relaxed fretting and simple adjustability, along with a slightly newer version of the Dreadnought body that still dates back to Taylor's earlier days. Appointments recall the original details of early 800 Series guitars, including white binding, a three-ring rosette in green abalone, mother-of-pearl Large Diamond fretboard inlays, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, and ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots. This Legacy guitar includes an undersaddle LR Baggs Element VTC pickup with soundhole-mounted controls. It ships with a deluxe hardshell case and sports a specially designed Legacy interior label.

• Body and peghead shape: The body is slightly newer than Bob’s earliest
versions but still older. The peghead is an earlier “straight-ear” shape with a
rosewood veneer.
• X-bracing: The pattern is a version used on Taylor Dreadnoughts and Jumbos prior to the arrival of Andy Powers.
• Patented Taylor neck: Bob’s breakthrough neck design (formerly
known as the NT neck) enables easy micro-adjustability and optimal playability/performance over time.
• Bridge style: The Dreadnought 810e will have Taylor’s recognizable modern shape; 
• Appointments: The aesthetic details recall those of the early 800 Series models, with
a clean, classic aesthetic Bob loves: white plastic binding, three-ring green abalone
rosette, non-engraved mother-of-pearl Large Diamond fretboard inlays, ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, gloss-finish body and neck, faux tortoiseshell pickguard and Taylor nickel tuning machines.
• Onboard Electronics: LR Baggs Element VTC (volume, tone, compression), featuring
an under-saddle pickup and all-discrete, Class A preamp that includes a soundhole mounted volume and tone control
